“Ology” introduces Gallant’s talent

Gallant uses his soaring falsetto voice in his newest debut album â€śOlogyâ€ť to create lofty, expressive R&B songs with deep, emotional lyrics and jazzy beats that sing to the soul.

The first track, literally named â€śFirst,â€ť is completely instrumental and introduces the solitary vibes of Gallantâ€™s contemporary jazz style of music. The following vocal song â€śTalking to Myselfâ€ť presents a vibrant mood as drums and an electric guitar play to a swaying rhythm in the background. The instruments mingle to produce a smooth, harmonizing melody that is simultaneously relaxing and stimulating.

In his hit single â€śWeight in Gold,â€ť Gallant fully takes advantage of his ability to change his voice from a soft croon to a powerful soprano. The song starts out with a blues-like tune coupled with crisp percussion sounds, and Gallant begins to sing in his signature breathy voice that intensifies with passion as he reaches the main chorus. The entire track flows with a continuous cascade of lyrics that repeat the phrase â€śIâ€™m pulling my weight in gold…but I canâ€™t lift this on my own.â€ť This song especially plucks at the listenerâ€™s heartstrings as Gallant tries to convey the struggle of being burdened with personal issues.

In his first album, the emerging R&B singer Gallant displays his abilities to surpass the limits of traditional musical styles and proves his potential to continue evolving the contemporary style of rhythm and blues in the future. As a profoundly soothing album, â€śOlogyâ€ť is perfect for listeners looking to drift off in thought or to find comfort from everyday stress.
